Temperature spontaneity, effect

Crystals with one of the ten polar point-group symmetries (Ci, C2, Cs, C2V, C4, C4V, C3, C3v, C(, Cgv) are called polar crystals. They display spontaneous polarization and form a family of ferroelectric materials. The main properties of ferroelectric materials include relatively high dielectric permittivity, ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition that occurs at a certain temperature called the Curie temperature, piezoelectric effect, pyroelectric effect, nonlinear optic property - the ability to multiply frequencies, ferroelectric hysteresis loop, and electrostrictive, electro-optic and other properties [16, 388],... 

Static dielectric measurements [8] show that all crystals in the family exhibit a very large quantum effect of isotope replacement H D on the critical temperature. This effect can be exemphfied by the fact that Tc = 122 K in KDP and Tc = 229 K in KD2PO4 or DKDP. KDP exhibits a weak first-order phase transition, whereas the first-order character of phase transition in DKDP is more pronounced. The effect of isotope replacement is also observed for the saturated (near T = 0 K) spontaneous polarization, Pg, which has the value Ps = 5.0 xC cm in KDP and Ps = 6.2 xC cm in DKDP. As can be expected for a ferroelectric phase transition, a decrease in the temperature toward Tc in the PE phase causes a critical increase in longitudinal dielectric constant (along the c-axis) in KDP and DKDP. This increase follows the Curie-Weiss law. Sc = C/(T - Ti), and an isotope effect is observed not only for the Curie-Weiss temperature, Ti Tc, but also for the Curie constant C (C = 3000 K in KDP and C = 4000 K in DKDP). Isotope effects on the quantities Tc, P, and C were successfully explained within the proton-tunneling model as a consequence of different tunneling frequencies of H and D atoms. However, this model can hardly reproduce the Curie-Weiss law for Sc-... 

Crystallization of supercooled fat in topping powders may be studied by NMR afterreconstitution in heavy water. Below room temperature spontaneous fat crystallization takes place under isothermal conditions in the presence of effective emulsifier (PGMS) but not with ineffective emulsifiers or without emulsifiers (Figure 4). 

Transfer processes can be caused by monomer, counterion, and other components of the reaction mixture (additives, solvents, impurities). The latter reactions are sometimes called spontaneous because they are zero order in monomer. However, the spontaneous elimination of /3-protons is very unlikely, and proton elimination must be assisted by some basic reagent. The ratio of the rate constants of /8-proton elimination to that of electrophilic addition depends on several factors. The relative rate of transfer decreases with temperature, and therefore polymers with higher molecular weights are formed at sufficiently low temperatures. The effect of solvent and counterion is not yet sufficiently understood. 

Third point according to the actual situation of the "three zones" of working face goaf put forward the corresponding Fire prevention measures of three-phase foam. Three-phase foam Fire prevention, not only make the goaf oxygen concentration greatly reduced, but also quickly reduce the residual coal temperature, can effectively prevent the spontaneous combustion of coal. 

When the rate of SG leakage increased suddenly (it had started some time before the accident), the oxides accumulated and other impurities filled the core, that was the cause of the violent decline of heat removal. Negative temperature reactivity effect was the cause of transfer the automatic power control rod up to the upper switch terminal and spontaneous power reducing to 7% of nominal one. This was the first symptom of the accident. 

We should remark that, in order to observe genuine spontaneous effects in these single atom cavity experiments it is important to control the blackbody field and to reduce the number of thermal photons in the mode well below unity (k3X/h uigf < I), which requires very low temperatures. If this condition is not fulfilled, one observes the oscillations of the atomic system in the random thermal field, which also present interesting features. A discussion of these effects, along with the effect of quantum collapse and revivals of Rabi nutation in an applied coherent field can be found in re-... 

With regard to the effect of temperature on adsorption processes, an increase in uptake of organic molecules is expected when the adsorption temperature decreases (adsorption is a spontaneous process). However, some examples have been reported where the amount adsorbed increased with temperature. Thus, for instance, Terzyk et al. (2003) reported that the adsorption of paracetamol from diluted aqueous solution increased with adsorption temperature. This effect was independent of the type of carbon, its surface chemistry or solution pH. The authors explained this behavior as due to phase changes in the crystal form of the adsorptive. Alternatively, diffusion restrictions may be operating because of the large size of the paracetamol molecule when an enhanced temperature increases rates of adsorption toward an equilibrium position. 

In the case of Cej Y Pd2Si2 (O x l) system the results of heat capacity, resistivity and susceptibility measurements (Besnus et al. 1987) show that a partial substitution of Ce by Y leads to a rapid decrease in the Neel temperature. Spontaneous magnetism and the Kondo effect coexist up to y = 0.4 (T = 3 K) where is estimated as 3 For higher Ce dilution the magnetic moment of the ground state doublet has become completely quenched and a genuine heavy fermion behaviour is evident, for example, y = 0.875 J/K Ce atom and = 10 K at Y = 0.5 and y = 0.58 J/K Ce atom and = 15 K at y = 0.75. 

In spite of the considerable dependence of the pre-exponent on spontaneous curvature and therefore on temperature, this effect is still minor with respect to the temperature dependence of the exponent, which justifies the evaluation of the activation energy from the Arrhenius plot, with the balanced point region and the region of elevated temperatures treated separately. 

For T shaped curves, reminiscent of the p, isothemis that the van der Waals equation yields at temperatures below the critical (figure A2.5.6). As in the van der Waals case, the dashed and dotted portions represent metastable and unstable regions. For zero external field, there are two solutions, corresponding to two spontaneous magnetizations. In effect, these represent two phases and the horizontal line is a tie-line . Note, however, that unlike the fluid case, even as shown in q., form (figure A2.5.8). the symmetry causes all the tie-lines to lie on top of one another at 6 = 0 B = 0). 

The unique feature in spontaneous Raman spectroscopy (SR) is that field 2 is not an incident field but (at room temperature and at optical frequencies) it is resonantly drawn into action from the zero-point field of the ubiquitous blackbody (bb) radiation. Its active frequency is spontaneously selected (from the infinite colours available in the blackbody) by the resonance with the Raman transition at co - 0I2 r material. The effective bb field mtensity may be obtained from its energy density per unit circular frequency, the... 

Ferroelectric crystals exhibit spontaneous electric polarization and hysteresis effects in the relation between polarization and electric field, as shown in Figure 1. This behavior is usually observed in a limited temperature range, ie, usually below a transition temperature (10). 

The shallow penetration of ion implantation would in itself make it appear useless as a technique for engineering appHcations however, there are several situations involving both physical and chemical properties in which the effect of the implanted ion persists to depths fat greater than the initial implantation range. The thickness of the modified zone can also be extended by combining ion implantation with a deposition technique or if deposition occurs spontaneously during the ion implantation process. In addition, ion implantation at elevated temperatures, but below temperatures at which degradation of mechanical properties could occur, has been shown to increase the penetration depths substantially (5). 

Pyroelectrics. Pyroelectric ceramics are materials that possess a uoique polar axis and are spontaneously polarized ia the abseace of an electric field. Pyroelectrics are also a subset of piezoelectric materials. Ten of the 20 crystal classes of materials that display the piezoelectric effect also possess a unique polar axis, and thus exhibit pyroelectricity. In addition to the iaduced charge resultiag from the direct pyroelectric effect, a change ia temperature also iaduces a surface charge (polarizatioa) from the piezoelectric aature of the material, and the strain resultiag from thermal expansioa. 

Microemulsions or solubilized or transparent systems are very important ia the marketing of cosmetic products to enhance consumer appeal (32,41). As a rule, large quantities of hydrophilic surfactants are required to effect solubilization. Alternatively, a combination of a solvent and a surfactant can provide a practical solution. In modem clear mouthwash preparations, for example, the flavoring oils are solubilized in part by the solvent (alcohol) and in part by the surfactants. The nature of solubilized systems is not clear. Under normal circumstances, microemulsions are stable and form spontaneously. Formation of a microemulsion requires Httle or no agitation. Microemulsions may become cloudy on beating or cooling, but clarity at intermediate temperatures is restored automatically. 

The corrosion behaviour of amorphous alloys has received particular attention since the extraordinarily high corrosion resistance of amorphous iron-chromium-metalloid alloys was reported. The majority of amorphous ferrous alloys contain large amounts of metalloids. The corrosion rate of amorphous iron-metalloid alloys decreases with the addition of most second metallic elements such as titanium, zirconium, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, cobalt, nickel, copper, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, iridium and platinum . The addition of chromium is particularly effective. For instance amorphous Fe-8Cr-13P-7C alloy passivates spontaneously even in 2 N HCl at ambient temperature ". (The number denoting the concentration of an alloy element in the amorphous alloy formulae is the atomic percent unless otherwise stated.)... 

Amorphous Fe-3Cr-13P-7C alloys containing 2 at% molybdenum, tungsten or other metallic elements are passivated by anodic polarisation in 1 N HCl at ambient temperature". Chromium addition is also effective in improving the corrosion resistance of amorphous cobalt-metalloid and nickel-metalloid alloys (Fig. 3.67). The combined addition of chromium and molybdenum is further effective. Some amorphous Fe-Cr-Mo-metalloid alloys passivate spontaneously even in 12 N HCl at 60° C. Critical concentrations of chromium and molybdenum necessary for spontaneous passivation of amorphous Fe-Cr-Mo-13P-7C and Fe-Cr-Mo-18C alloys in hydrochloric acids of various concentrations and different temperatures are shown in Fig. 3.68 ... 

This tells us immediately that, just as for Ising spins, we have a spontaneous magnetization and that there is an effective phase transition for T = 1 stored patterns will only be stable for temperatures T < 1.
